The Vinyl Report returns for a second season this month. The 4-part series will provide the viewer insight into Jazz albums with distinctly Pittsburgh ties. These albums feature just some of the many legendary Pittsburgh Jazz innovators from multiple generations and styles. Episodes will air every 3rd Thursday starting January 20 on the AWAACC YouTube channel and pittsburghjazzfest.org.

For the first episode, we spend some time with two true Greats: Charlie Parker and Thaddeus Mosely. In addition to being one of the world’s great visual artists, Mr. Mosely is also a lifelong Jazz fan. We explore the classic Charlie Parker album, Bird with Strings. Mr. Mosely saw this band live right here in Pittsburgh at a club called Johnny Brown’s and gives his insightful recollections about the music. This is an episode you don’t want to miss!
